I always thought it was odd when people would ask me how much my restaurant made, or what the rent was, even how much did I sell it for!

First if you get an answer it will not be the real numbers.

Second the people that would ask these questions of me would never ever be able to start a restaurant.
The smart people know not to ask.

Third it varies greatly with each event.

As an event promoter it's just not smart to give out numbers, people that work with you may get pissed if they know you are making any money.
The people who rent space to you will jack up your fees if they know you are making any money.

And there's a little group known as the IRS that has tax returns that states the event made little to no money, ever.
